This photo was staged, though - I ended up selling the chair and I actually have a small armless loveseat in this spot. I had a brown side table that I got at Salvation Army years ago but I've never LOVED it... when I picked up a Heywood Wakefield children's desk recently, though, I knew I wanted to do a switcheraoo!
In my impatience, I didn't wait until daylight to take a photo. Forgive me. :) Here's the desk in place!
I love it! It is really unique and adds a lot of personality to the room. The brown table was functional but really boring.
What a fun transformation! And the best part? This desk was actually CHEAPER than the original table. I paid $15 for the table at Salvation Army but only $6 for this desk! Amazing!
Do any of you have a desk like this that you're using in your house? What do you do with the cubby? I will probably start keeping my magazines there, but I'm not sure yet!
love that desk! i've always wanted one of those super old school wood desks in my house. i'm forever keeping my eyes open.
